USE
-Due to its physical-technical characteristics, brushed cotto can be installed in interiors or exteriors. Laying in freezing areas is allowed if the material is correctly installed and does not undergo any other surface treatment. -For inside use the material requires a treatment or we recommend the use of our factory-finished series, see chapter “Flash system”.
DETAIL
It is laid according to the traditional system or with adhesive. Advised width of grout joints minimum 3 mm. For indoor and outdoor use irrespective of environmental or climatic factors. The transpiring nature of the terracotta guarantees a healthy and particularly comfortable environment. To be treated after laying if used for interiors.
FLASH VERSION
The Brushed Cotto Sannini treated with Flashsystem l’an exclusive method of treatment carried out in the factory by Sannini. It entails a complete cycle of working, using avantgarde techniques and products studied to preserve the terracotta’s natural qualities as a sign of respect to the environment and its ecosystem.
All materials used for the treatment of Flash are non-toxic, and being water-based, do not contain solvents. Essential feature of Flashsystem is its in-depth protection which guarantees resistance to stains, damp rings and efflorescences, although the original transpiring nature of the material is maintained.
As a consequence, the cladding with these ready-to-use products presents itself with the colour and aspect of terracotta treated traditionally on site with acids and waxing. Such operations become superfluous since Flash products do not alter when laid if the mounting instructions are followed correctly.
